Problem
You’re working on something. You want to open up a Dynalist document. You know which document you want, but to open, right now, you must first:
- Type in
dynalist.io
into your search bar - Stare at the loading circle, waiting and looking for the document to load
- Open Go To, type
foo
, and navigate to your document
That Step #2, waiting for the document to load: That’s annoying. It can make you lose your cognitive state. It puts distance between intention and action.
Solution
Redirect URLS like dynalist.io/goto?q=foo
to the first match for the document/bookmark matching Foo
. This way, we can register a custom Google Chrome search engine, and voilĂ : Our streamlined process looks like this:
- Type in
dynadoc
Tabfoo
Enter, and you’re done!
